Missing infant injured, Oklahoma City police say

Oklahoma City police are looking for two adults believed to have taken a 2-month-old baby – possibly in serious condition – from OU Children’s Hospital.

The hospital reportedly contacted OU police overnight, who then requested assistance from the OCPD in their investigation.

The two adults, one male and one female, were last spotted with the infant, according to authorities. The man claimed to be the child’s father and told hospital officials his name is Michael Dominguez, officers said.

He also told hospital staff the baby’s name was Jacob Dominguez. However, police said they found all of the contact information provided by the man to be false.

Police said the two were driving a red Ford F-150 pickup truck with Texas plates and a sticker that said “BOSS” on the back window.

According to a police report filed on July 30, officers responded to the Roadway Inn and Suites on a welfare check. When they arrived, paramedics were already on scene treating an unresponsive infant. The baby was later transported to Children’s Hospital.

The police report states “there were no signs of abuse,” and that the child “appeared to have choked on a little bit of spit up when it rolled onto its stomach.” Police say, while in the ambulance, the baby "woke up" and “appeared fine.”

This time police say the child may have an unspecified serious injury and be in need of medical care.

Police are asking anyone with information to call 911.
